Unfortunately in jordan we lack the respect for our neighbors, colleagues, kids, streets, environment, roads, neighborhoods. We need to work on many problems we have in our society and change begins within ourselves, we shouldnt wait for the Government to tell us how to respect the environment for example or how to smile to your neighbor, or how to slow down when there are kids on the streets....the list goes onAli Dahmashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01006710705707013000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-17599779637455312192008-11-09T00:45:00.000-08:002008-11-09T00:45:00.000-08:00Ahmad, excellen additions.

Well, T...Thank you MommaBean for this great post... Well, The yes we can for Jordan need at least a bookof several volumes to fit in... But among the most important ones are:<BR/>- The first Yes we can mab3oos posted about parliment members.<BR/>- Yes we can put the right person in the right place instead of putting our relatives or friends even if they are incompetnent and know nothing about anything.<BR/>- Yes we can give credit and respect to people based on their capacities, achievements and ideas, instead of giving that based on their family name, their money or their other nationality besides Jordanian.<BR/>- Yes we can be proud of our culture and heritage, because it is the past and its lessons who help to build a better future. Our culture is a great one.<BR/>- Yes we can point out the aberrant habits and traditions in our society, and try to fix them.<BR/>- Yes we can stop the massacres of our children in the streets, by sending road criminals to prison. We can stop the outdated, stupid, illogical habit of giving "Atwa" for the family of the criminal who commits a murder with his car.<BR/>Yes we can become a society, because we are not for now. A society means people who live together and help each other, people who think together to build a better life, people who are not afraid of critics, people who are don't think that they are the best on earth even if they did nothing throughout their life. We need to think together, to work together. <BR/><BR/>Happy sociological thinking.Ahmad Hamdanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16182014019353653781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-31719658725634204692008-11-06T00:15:00.000-08:002008-11-06T00:15:00.000-08:00Yes we can't unless we are able to be critical and...Yes we can't unless we are able to be critical and have the freedom to say what we want to say without fear or prosecution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-6497315520527932542008-11-05T23:35:00.000-08:002008-11-05T23:35:00.000-08:00you asked for it!>Yes we can: Elect Members of ...you asked for it!<BR/><BR/>>Yes we can: Elect Members of Parliament based on the "content of their character" not the name of their tribe.<BR/>>Yes we can: By at least following the laws already in place, become the nation we could.<BR/>>Yes we can: leave our baseball bats at home when going to soccer games.<BR/>>Yes we can: Use the under/over ground street crossing instead of jumping over the center divider.<BR/>>Yes we can: stop the "nifaq ijtima3y" for its....well, Nifaq!<BR/>>Yes we can: Do a lot if we put aside the fake belief of superiority and have an honest, serious look at the state of the nation.mab3ooshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15137654380483612818noreply@blogger.com
